Default Can a hood for AFS 70-200 fit the AFS 80-200?

I am unable to buy a hood for my AFS 80-200 and was wondering if the AFS 70-200 VR can fit.

Thanks for your input in advance.

thanks for the info guys....

i have tried CP and Lords and Nikon Singapore..no luck...

adorama and B&H....kosong

begged Nikon Singapore to try to see if HK, Taiwan or Japan has stock so I could grab one...

its tuff when they say its no longer in production so the supporting accessories have also had their stocks depleted.

Have you search out at those old looking camera shops in Peninsular plaza and around the area. I saw few shops selling accessories (end caps, straps.. etc..)

Try your luck...

Thanks brothers!

Guess I will be using my Lee Lens Hood using the 77mm filter attachment then. It will be odd looking but then again, if it helps its ok.

Cheers and have a great day ahead!
